Lubricants for mining and quarrying
Maximum performance for extreme applications on your construction site and in the mine
Construction machinery and mobile equipment in open-cast and underground mining operate under the harshest conditions: extreme dust pollution, strong vibrations, high pressures, and changeable weather present daily challenges for both personnel and materials.
To ensure that machinery operates reliably under these conditions, Rhenus Lub offers specially developed high-performance greases that are precisely tailored to these operating scenarios.
Our rhenus lubricating greases effectively protect critical components such as joints, bearings, and pivot points from wear and corrosion, reduce friction, and extend maintenance intervals – for greater efficiency, less downtime, and maximum service life of your machinery.
Around the world, companies in the construction and mining industries rely on our lubricant expertise for smooth operation, even under extreme conditions.

Solutions
rhenus CMN 2
rhenus CMN 2 is a calcium-saponified grease and is suitable for lubricating roller and friction bearings within the specified temperature range, even under high loads.
Suitable for applications including the lubrication of wheel bearings on trucks, construction machinery, ground-mounted winders and agricultural machinery, as well as heavy machinery such as earth-moving machines and excavators.
For central lubrication systems in mining equipment or large pieces of machinery, e.g. bucket wheel excavators.
rhenus LBC 15
rhenus LBC 15 is a high-performance lithium-saponified grease and is suitable for lubricating roller and plain bearings under normal and demanding operating conditions. It is particularly suitable for lubrication points that are exposed to high loads and occasional shock loads, as well as to vibration.
For central lubrication systems in mining equipment or large pieces of machinery, e.g. bucket wheel excavators. Excellently suited to use in long pipe and conveyor runs.
rhenus LMN 2
Special multi-purpose grease for the lubrication of excavators and ancillary equipment. For lubricating roller and friction bearings, even under high loads. It was specifically developed as a multi-purpose grease for the lubrication of excavators.
rhenus ADG 0
Fluid grease that contains solid lubricants, for use on open gear wheels, conveyor chains, toothed racks, crane ropes as well as slide and guide rails that are subject to high pressures and temperatures.
